Dear Rick & Karen:

&nbsp

Previously a memo from Karen indicated possibly five (5) additional issue to

this line more than what was indicated in HHY partial genealogy based on an

1850 listing. It would appear that the Sharpless Genealogy has a few extra

issue for one child died in 1850 and others may have been married and thusly

not included in the overall account.

&nbsp

Amos Yarnall, born in Ohio, 21 April 1813, Lenni, Delaware Co., Pa. 12 September 1883, married 1832

Sarah Long, born Brandywine, Chester County, 5 January 1811, daughter of Joseph Long and Jane Henderson.

Jane previously resided at Lenni and Amos was a finisher and owned some property there. Their

issue:

&nbsp

Jesse, b. Philadelphia 3 June 1833, married Mary L. Tyler, living previously

in Pittsburgh, Pa. and had several children.

Amos, b. 22 February 1835, d. 29 May 1861, at Lima, Delaware Co., Pa., married Rachel McClay and had one child who died in 1860/1.

Mary Jane, b. 30 September, d. 23 April 1863, married E. B. Garrett, of Willistown, and had Sarah Jane, Elijah, and one who died young.

Larcy DeGrace, b. 9 April 1839, married 1st Samuel Polin, 2nd George Snyder.

Mahalaleel, b. 3 February 1841, died at Lenni 21 January 1864 unmarried.

Hannah A., b. 1 February 1845, died Philadelphia 21 January 1850.

George, b. 26 July 1847, m. 1864 then living in Pittsburgh, Pa.

Kate, b. 4 June 1851, married David H. McClurg.

Thomas, b. Cecil Co., Md. 16 February 1853, d. Lenni 21 July 1854.

John A., b. 6 July 1854, married Elizabeth A. Batty.

&nbsp

Hope these will connect finally connect some missing branches.

Lin,

Concerning this line, and the son Jesse, you wrote:

Jesse, b. Philadelphia 3 June 1833, married Mary L. Tyler, living previously

in Pittsburgh, Pa. and had several children.

To me, that location of Pittsburgh, PA was the best clue. I find Jesse in the 1860 census thus:

&nbsp

Alleghany County, PENN, 5th Ward Pittsburgh, pg 711.

&nbsp

J. Yarnall, 27, m, machinist, REF_NOTES, , PA

&nbsp

[ boarder ]

&nbsp

In the next entry, we have what seems to be that same Jesse in 1870, based on being in

Pittsburgh and a wife named Mary (per Sharpless). But there is a slight problem of Jesse's age

in the census. He should be 37 y.o., not age 25. I do not have this census family connected

anywhere.

&nbsp

Alleghany County, PENN, 10th Ward Pittsburgh, pg 296.

&nbsp

Jesse Yarnell, 25, m, Supervisor Penn. R.R., REF_NOTES, 0, PA

&nbsp

Mary, 23, f, England ( mother & father foreign born )

&nbsp

Eugene B., 3, m, PA (mother foreign born )

&nbsp

John A., 2, m, PA (mother foreign born )

&nbsp

Joseph T., 7/12, m, PA, born in October (mother foreign born )

&nbsp

Margaret WALKIN, 13, f, domestic servant, REF_NOTES, 0, Ireland

&nbsp

( father & mother foreign born )

&nbsp

[ census taken 8/11/1870 ]

&nbsp

I do not find Jesse & Mary in the 1880 census. But here is that same Mary in 1900, husband

presumably being dead by then:

&nbsp

ALLEGHANY, Pittsburgh, Downing St., 162-6

&nbsp

Mary L. Yarnall, head, f, Feb 1844, 56, England

&nbsp

John A., son, Mar 1870, 30, PA

&nbsp

Joseph T., son, Feb 1871, 29, PA

&nbsp

Jessie, son, Apr 1872, 28, PA

&nbsp

Percy F., son, May 1878, 22, PA

&nbsp

Edna R., dau, Apr 1880, 20, PA

&nbsp

Here is the 1900 census entry for Eugene Yarnall, listed with Jesse in 1870:

&nbsp

ALLEGHENY, Pittsburg, 7045 Idlewild St., 260-5

&nbsp

Eugene Yarnall, head, Sep 1865, 34, PA

&nbsp

Sarah E., wife, Jan 1869, 31, PA

&nbsp

Harriet F., dau, May 1891, 9, PA

&nbsp

Here is the above Mary in the 1910 Soundex:

&nbsp

ALLEGHENY, Crafton, 47-304

&nbsp

Mary Yarnell, 66, born: England

&nbsp

[mother-in-law of & living with Richard DONALDSON]

&nbsp

I'll need to look at the original census, of course, but Mr. Donaldson is likely the husband of

Mary's daughter Edna.

&nbsp

And here are two of Mary's sons in 1910 Soundex:

&nbsp

ALLEGHENY, Pittsburgh, 430-224

&nbsp

Eugene B. Yarnall, head, 43, PA

&nbsp

Sarah E., wife, 40, PA

&nbsp

Joseph T., brother, 40, PA

Dear Karen:

&nbsp

Referring to your question of January 21st regarding the relationship of the

subject. Amos Yarnall was the son of Amos Yarnall, Sr. and Larcy DeGrace

Beaumont as you had so captioned. Amos, the younger, had two siblings Jane,

twin to Amos &

Mahalalel. The spelling of Mahalalel I must assume is the correct, it coming

from the Bible, book of Genesis. I have traced Mahalalel from 1863 to 1888

using the Philadelphia Directory where his studio was located, although he

was a resident of Phoenixville, Pa. along with my clan. The Philadelphia

Directory has his forename spelled five different ways and unless someone

would like those spellings I'll defer same. Mahalalel is buried in Morris

Cemetery along with many of my family members and it will be my pleasure in

the days ahead to give you what I have on Jane and Mahalalel, siblings to

Amos, Jr.

&nbsp

Regards, Lin.
